actitudes, cáncer, afecto, conducta, conocimiento, emociónResumen
El cáncer representa altas tasas de morbimortalidad humana, por ello su diagnóstico ha sido objeto de respuestas psicológicas diversas como las actitudes, las cuales denotan una tendencia de favorabilidad o desfavorabilidad hacia una entidad específica. Una revisión de la literatura publicada entre 2005 y 2017 sobre las actitudes hacia el cáncer, analizadas a través del modelo tripartito, dio lugar a reflexionar sobre la importancia que estas tienen, tanto para los pacientes, como para la población general y los profesionales de la salud. De acuerdo con lo anterior, se presentan las actitudes reportadas hacia el cáncer, la forma en que interactúan los conocimientos, las creencias, las emociones y las conductas y, también, las conclusiones de una postura crítica y analítica frente a estas actitudes con sus implicaciones para los profesionales de la salud.
